Bloody Knox Bloody Knox was a Civil War resistance skirmish that occurred on December 13, 1864 in Knox Township, Clearfield County in central Pennsylvania.〔http://www.clearfieldcountyhistoricalsociety.net/bloody-knox-fall-festival/〕 Two people were killed and 18 arrested in the resistance. ==Civil War Drafts==
During the American Civil War a Conscription Act was passed to enable a draft to help provide support in the war against the Confederacy. By August 1864, Clearfield County had a 600 man draft list, however due to the resentment towards the war as well as President Lincoln's draft request, and the low income residents of the area only 150 men reported. Similarly, just after the Battle of Gettysburg, resistance occurred in New York City and what is known as the New York City draft riots of 1863.〔http://visitclearfieldcounty.org/destinations/heritage/bloody-knox/〕
